About WUND-TV
Full-power stations are the main licensed broadcasters in a market. They may run the highest power from the tallest towers and are protected from interference, so they set the core of what you can receive.
At 657 kW effective radiated power, WUND-TV runs more power than 67% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).
Its antenna sits 490 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 70% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 64 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.
We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 75 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 58 cities and towns in our guide with about 1,590,000 residents, as far as Virginia Beach, VA (69 miles).
